Stupid question, but where does bandwidth come from?

[alien amp pharm]

Like if you download a video file, or copy a file over and over and over. Where do the bytes and bandwidth come from?

As long as you keep deleting files can you copy endlessly?

No I'm not high

question is so dumb, I don't really know where to begin.

Bandwidth is a widely misused term, tipically confused with bitrate (like in your case)

It means several things, depending on the application

now, where does it come from? Curling would say that it comes from God and Osama tried to kill it.

Samoth would say it all started with the Big Bang

I know shit about bandwidth, I just happen to have a lot of it

I'm too lazy to read that link. I was expecting a one sentence answer. Geez.

Ah hell everyone knows that it comes from the Bandwidth Fairy!

you do realize that just because you preface something with "stupid question"...doesn't get you off the hook from asking a stupid question...right?


really, i don't think we need a disclaimer.
